There is an old Chinese saying that if you want to make the world a better place, you must first make your village a better village to live in. To do that, you must first make your family a nicer group. To make the family nicer, you must first improve your own self.
On that basis, I attempt to make myself better.
Big books have been written advising how one can improve one's own self.
Some of the suggestions the gurus who write such books emphasise on are:
Have self confidence. Have self worth. Have self esteem. Have self belief in one's abilities.
Have self respect. Have ability to manage themselves.
People with these qualities generally do the following:
1. They have vision. They know what they want. They feel their wants to the very core of their existence. They have a passion for the work that needs to be done to get to their aim.
2. They have strategy. They have a plan to get to their vision. If need be, they can vary their plans to meet changing circumstances.
3. They have high personal and social moral values. Their actions do not hurt anyone's feelings or harm anyone.
4. They act on their plans and hopes.
5. They become the person they want to be.
There is enough material above to keep me thinking for many days.
So see you after a few days.
But meanwhile, please do add your comments to my musings. Any suggestions will be appreciated and welcome. Thank you.
